It says this file has too many facets. Is there a simple way to reduce the number of facets in order to use this file to make a case? This is the file I'm trying to use: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:412639 Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Thank you for your post in the Forum.

I have downloaded the file in the link and start working on it.

I will check the file format and see what would be the best way to work in Fusion 360 on the design.

We will keep you updated.

 

Thanks,

That file has a STEP file in it, all you have to do is New Design From File and open the STEP file.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Thank you for asking about the PCB you would like to import into Fusion 360.
